Now we figure out he punched his busdriver, sells drugs, was taken out of school for possessing stolen jewelry, and is a typical "gangsta thug".

Seems to me the whole "little angel" image has been shattered. If you don't believe a history of violence and theft is relevant you are deliberately biased and should be ignored.
I don't understand what your point is. Does whether Martin was a good person or not change the fact that he wasn't armed and was shot to death by a man who clearly lied in his statement to police about what happened? Last time I checked, being a shithead 17 year old wannabe-thug isn't a crime that warrants arbitrary execution on the streets for.

Also, it's probably worth mentioning that Zimmerman had criminal charges for domestic violence, resisting an officer without violence, and resisting an officer with violence. So the guy who did the shooting had a violent criminal history, while the guy who was killed had no criminal history at all.
